Under Missouri law, which action is considered brandishing a firearm?

  1. Carrying a concealed firearm in public

  2. Displaying a firearm in a threatening manner

  3. Openly carrying a firearm in a holster

  4. Transporting a firearm in a vehicle

The correct answer is: Displaying a firearm in a threatening manner

Displaying a firearm in a threatening manner is considered brandishing a firearm under Missouri law. This action involves showing or waving a firearm in a way that would cause fear or intimidation in others. It's important to understand the specific legal definitions and implications of brandishing a firearm to ensure compliance with Missouri's laws on carrying and using firearms. Carrying a concealed firearm in public (Option A), openly carrying a firearm in a holster (Option C), and transporting a firearm in a vehicle (Option D) are not inherently considered brandishing a firearm unless the firearm is displayed in a threatening manner, as mentioned in the correct answer.
